About the Book

‘A brilliant book’ - Mary Wesley, Daily Mail ‘She is simply dynamite … There are no apparent bounds to Trapido’s skill, her inventiveness and her knowledge’ - Philip Hensher, Guardian Sparky Christina and her saintly adopted sister Pam couldn't be more different. And when they meet similarly mismatched friends Jago and Peter, the four embark on a dazzling series of pairings and partings, outrageous coincidences and eleventh-hour entrances interrupted one disastrous Halloween when schoolboy revelry turns horribly wrong. Three years on, as Christina has made it to Oxford to study English. While she analyses the wit, cruelty and crossed genders of Shakespearean comedy, the cast of her own life reunites and the curtain falls on some gloriously unexpected partnerships. ‘Juggling by Barbara Trapido is, I think, already well known but it should be even more so. It has the best piece of Shakespeare criticism in it I’ve ever read’ - Katherine Rundell, Guardian ‘A joy to read … Supremely skilful’ - Observer ‘She weaves a cat’s cradle of wit and erudition around her high-stepping characters, take breath-taking risks and triumphs against all the odds’ - Independent

Review :
Barbara Trapido couldn’t write a boring sentence if she tried Ravishing A brilliant book She wraps up all the golden threads with dazzling wit ... Think Measure for Measure here and a touch of The Tempest there ... Trapido's pen drips with sensuousness and sexuality She is simply dynamite … There are no apparent bounds to Trapido’s skill, her inventiveness and her knowledge of the endlessly surprising and devious ways in which people deal with each other Juggling by Barbara Trapido is, I think, already well known but it should be even more so. It has the best piece of Shakespeare criticism in it I’ve ever read A joy to read … Supremely skilful A work of enormous charm, highly entertaining and told with a deft touch, which handles serious matters lightly and treats light ones with proper respect A brilliant performance; it is also a magically enjoyable book to read … she understand her characters and cares about them and makes you care too She weaves a cat’s cradle of wit and erudition around her high-stepping characters, take breath-taking risks and triumphs against all the odds A brilliant performance … A magically enjoyable book
